Plan on losing 4~6 mpg with a lift and 35" tires, rim size will not make too much of a difference. If you want to reclaim 1mpg, then keep the plastic air dam keeping airflow clean under the jeep. You will have to trim the sides of the plastic to clear tires when turning.
very nice look
thats what im talking about
You know it bugs me when I see a thread like this and all the 20s hating people talking crap about airing down , but those same people think and say 17s on 33s is fine
In both of those setups you don't have enough sidewall for optima off roading but you never here no one tell the guys with 33s on 17s that
Now OP if you want 35s on 20s it's not going to take anything more to run them then any rim with 35s
I run 20s and love them

Thanks for the reply but heres the thing i did buy it for the looks. i have always liked the look of jku's i didnt buy it thinking im gonna mod this out so i can go climb a mountain. i will be doing very light off road stuff , my main consern is not having to do other mods,
being able to run 20s with 35" tires and a 2.5" lift and if there would be a big diffrence in mpg between 17s or 20s

I don't get the point of your pictures execpt that is what I am talking about you told the OP that 35s on 20s is not good for off roading , but you are ok with 33s on 17s
They have about the same amount of sidewall ( depending on the tire maker and wheel width )
